FAQ's

What is a Fractional CMO?

A Fractional CMO is a part-time Chief Marketing Officer who provides executive-level marketing strategy and leadership without the need for a full-time hire. They help businesses align their marketing efforts with business goals, develop marketing plans, and oversee the execution of campaigns.

How is a Fractional CMO different from hiring a marketing agency?

A Fractional CMO offers strategic leadership at the executive level, whereas marketing agencies typically focus on execution of specific campaigns. A Fractional CMO works closely with your leadership team to develop and guide the overall marketing strategy, ensuring that all marketing efforts are aligned with your business objectives.

How do you work with our internal team or current agency?

We can seamlessly integrate with your internal marketing team or existing agency, providing the strategic oversight needed to ensure alignment with your business goals. We lead the strategy and work in tandem with your team or partners to execute the plan effectively.

Do you handle the execution, or do you just provide strategy?

While our primary focus is on strategy and leadership, we also oversee the implementation of marketing plans. This can involve working directly with your team, managing third-party vendors, or helping you find the right resources to execute the strategy.

What size businesses typically benefit from a Fractional CMO?

Our services are best suited for small to mid-sized SaaS companies that need marketing leadership but don’t have the budget or need for a full-time CMO. We also work with growing companies that need to scale their marketing efforts quickly and strategically.

How long does it take to see results?

Quick wins can be identified within the first few weeks, especially after the initial audit. Long-term, sustainable results are typically seen within 3 to 6 months as the marketing strategy is implemented and optimized over time.

What is the cost of hiring a Fractional CMO?

Pricing varies depending on the level of engagement and the specific needs of your business. On average, a Fractional CMO costs $4,000 - $15,000 per month, offering a cost-effective solution compared to hiring a full-time CMO with a six-figure salary.
